Default difficulty rating??????
What's the difficulty rating on replacing the altenator myself? Looks to be pretty straight forward, but are there any tricks or things I should know that would make it easier?

That's what I figured. Thanks tech. How sweet is that F'n V70 R wagon? I absolutely have to get that car. My search is finally over. Hopefully within the next six months as the new job will be paying a lot more.
